About Spybotics

A one-year experiment

The range is small enough to list in full. Technojaw T55 (3809-1) is the biggest at 261 pieces, followed by Gigamesh G60 (3806-1, 243 pieces), Shadowstrike S70 (3808-1, 236 pieces) and Snaptrax S45 (3807-1, 202 pieces). The code in each name tells the four robots apart. Built largely from Technic-style elements, they sit somewhere between a construction set and an electronic toy.

Collecting all four

With only four releases, completing Spybotics is realistic. Each set's parts list shows what belongs to the model, which helps when checking a second-hand robot.
